From Hagey & Wilhelm, St Louis,
Mo., who claim to be the oldest and heavi
est receivers of wool, for sale on commis
sion, in the city, the Kansas Farmer
learns the following:
Market active and firm, and" returns
for shipments are received by the grower
in ten to fifteen .days from date of ship
ment. Traveling buyers are misrepresenting
the market to growers, and buying their
wool in country points for 15 and 16 cents,
when if they ship it will net 16 and 17
cents here. Let the grower ship and make
that one cent per pound profit for himself.
We take special pains with small lots
and can always sell them to advantage.
In our entire business career we have
never speculated to the extent of one
cent, and have ample means in the Boat
men's Saving Bank to make prompt re
turns as- soon as we sell.
Any grower desiring to keep posted in
our market, or wanting wool sacks free
of charge to ship to us in, will please
send us his address.
Growers will do well to ship early, as
we look for decline in prices during the
latter part of July and August.
The Wheat Outlook.
, Kansas Farmer.
It is not good. And the failure is gen
eral all over the country. The latest
estimate of the crop was made by Mr. S.
W. Talmadge, of Milwaukee. He says
there is no loBger any question as to
the damage and loss to the winter wheat
of this country. A falling off of 160,000,
000 bushels in winter wheat from last
year is a calamity unprecedented in the
history of wheat raising in the United
States. The present condition of spring
wheat is good, but there must be favorable
weather until harvest to produce the
amount of wheat shown in the present
estimates, as they are based upon the
present condition. The estimates show
the probable yield of spring wheat to be
121,000,000 bushels. Winter wheat 210,
090,000; total spring and winter 331,000,000
bushels. From those figures it will be
seen the crop of 1885, as compared with
1884, will show a shortage in winter
wheat of 160,000,000 bushels; spring
wheat 22,000,000 bushels; total shortage
1S2,000,000'. The average wheat yield of
the United States for five years past is
461,000,000 bushels. The estimate" shows
a shortage, compared with the average
five years, of 130,000,000 bushels.
CASTLE ROCK RIPPLES.
Castle Rock, July 7.
Several good showers.
Everything is growing in fine shape.
The boys who went east looking for
work in the harvest fields have returned,
unsuccessful, after going as far as
Ellsworth. They report work less abun
dant and help much more plenty than a
year ago.
The past week has been the most favor
able of the season here for the crops.
The rains were followed by several cloudy,
damp days, and even the withered and
sunburned early millet has picked up
courage, and now promises to make per
haps a half crop.
The question of a new school house for
this district is being agitated. Tne
present sod building is beginning to show
age, and it is hardly large enough to
meet tho wants of the district. A change
of location will doubtless be made to
some point more nearly in the center of
the school population.
The sultry, damp weather, so unfavor
able to all pulmonary complaints, seri
ously aggravated Mrs. Harfin's asthma,
and for a time it was feared she could not
live. Dr. Jones was called, and arrived
late Sunday night. After a hurried ex
amination of the case he administered
medicines which at once relieved her, and,
thanks to his skill, she is now fairly on
the way to recovery.
There was a general turnout of the
people of Banner and vicinity on Satur
day at Mr. J. U. .Browns lor a bundav
school picnic and Fourth of July celebra
tion. About sixty persons were present.
The day was as fine as could be desired.
The tables were spread a little after noon,
and a glance at their load of good things
would convince any person that this is
not now "starving Kansas." However,
aftor seeing the rapidity with which the
edibles disappeared, one might have
reason to fear a return of the starvation
era. The afternoon was spent by the
older portion of the company in social
intercourse, while the younger occupied
themselves with games. Finally, all ad
journed to a little grove of cottonwoods
and willows, where some time was spent
in singing, after which prayer was offered
by Mr. Brown. The teams were then
brought up, and, before leaving, all joined
in thanking Mr. and Mrs. Brown foe the
pains which they had so kindly taken to
make the day a pleasant one for all.
X.
Habitual constipation is not only one
of the most unpleasant, but at the same
time one of the most injurious conditions
of the human system, and is but a fore
runner of disease, unless removed. This
is usually accomplished by the use of
purgatives, which for the time afford
relief, but after their immediate effects
have passed they leave the system in a
worse state than before. To effect a cure
it is necessary that the remedy used
should be one that not only by its carthar
tic effects relieves the bowels, but at tho
same tune acts as a tonic so as to restore
the organs to a sound, healthy condition.
This PbickiiY Ash Bittebs will do. It
removes the cause and restores health.

June, 1880, Final Proofs. . . .
The copy for these blanks comes
from approved sources.
The proof of each blank is sub
mitted to the scrutiny of Register
Hanna, who, besides being old in
the Land Service of the Government,
is a practical printer.
These blanks, to be brief, are
warranted to he perfect in wording,
printing, quality of paper and all
other essentials.
Big reductions made on lots of
500 or more.
The blanks here named will he
added to constantly until we can
supply every blank needed at the
land office, whose printing by us is
justifiable on business grounds.
We mean precisely what we say,
and wish every atom of Saxon in
this statement to have its full
weight: We are not to be bucked
off! the track by foreign opposition.
We buy our printing paper in Kan
sas, and, as a rule, send for nothing
outside of the state which cart be
had within it. When we know we
are getting an article reasonably, we
don't haggle about prices either.
We aim to assert, in letters of living
light, to be observed especially by land
attorneys in this land district, that
if any foreign agency offers bargains,
you can, upon authenticating properly
its offer, have it duplicated right in
this office!
Don't send away for what you
can buy reasonably at home. That
is not the way to build up a country!
If land agents will not work for
the region of country in whose
lands they deal, who can be expected
to do so?
Cash must accompany all orders.
Yours regularly,
W. S. TILTON,
ProprietorWESTERN" Kansas World.
